1.0 INTRODUCTION
Thanks for purchasing this AP-536 HDMI Audio Extractor from the AV Toolbox
division of TV One. The AP-536 is a compact device that allows you to extract
embedded audio from an HDMI signal. Some video displays accept an HDMI
video signal but do not provide a way to process the embedded audio. The AP-
536 will extract, process and present for distribution virtually any of the standard
embedded audio formats and provide both optical and analog outputs for
connection to your audio amplification system. AV Toolbox offers a wide range of
video, audio and multimedia products.
